Bernard Nathanson, former abortionist turned pro-life crusader, passed away on February 21 at the age of 84.
Nathanson is a testimony to the grace of God and to the fact that no one, no matter what he has done, is beyond the reach of that grace.
Rest eternal grant unto him, O Lord, and may light perpetual shine upon him.

I don't follow the news hour by hour, but I don't recall hearing anything about this. Isn't he the guy who produced The Silent Scream?

Yes, he is. I was much struck by Wesley Smith's description of him when they met as "sad." I suppose one would be in his situation. But he found the forgiveness of God, and I believe he isn't sad anymore.
